2. If you could time travel, you'd visit...

a. Any century that involves the frequent wearing of corsets.

b. The 1920s-30s.

c. Sometime in the distant future, preferably when you can volunteer to colonize Pluto.

4. If you had to choose between a Vulcan and a pet unicorn, you would...

b. Attempt to figure out why you're facing this bizarre conundrum.

c. Choose the Vulcan. Duh.

Now it's time to tally up your results. If you answered...

Mostly As: You are Historical Fiction. You're almost certain you were born in the wrong time period. No one in this century even duels anymore, after all! You tend to be nostaligic and romantic, but not too much; you don't want to completely disregard the facts.

Mostly Bs: You are Mystery. If it involves sneaking around after dark or ransom notes, you're totally in. You love the thrill and anticipation of not knowing what's happening, and you can't get enough of crime shows. You attempt to solve any mystery you come across, even if it's just figuring out who's sending your best friend those anonymous love notes.

Mostly Cs: You are Science Fiction. You're waiting desperately for the day when laser blasters and spaceships are a common thing. You love thinking up new, untested ideas; once you scrounge up some money, you fully intend to start building that wormhole-creator you've been designing since you were eight.

Mostly Ds: You are Drama/Romance. You don't care about the when or the where of things so much as the what—specifically, what will it take to get the main character and her crush together? You're a sucker for a good love story, and you tend to think the best of everything (especially people).

Mostly Es: You are Fantasy. If you could escape this reality, you would. Since you can't, you'll just go on pretending for the rest of forever (yes, we see that Cosplay outfit you've got stuffed in your closet). You tend to daydream a lot. Your world is always full of outrageous possibilities, and you like it that way.

Mostly Fs: You are Non-fiction. You're a realist, and you'd prefer to keep it that way. You don't want to go gallivanting off in some forgotten time period with a magical beast; you've got enough problems to deal with in real life, after all. You'd much rather be someone important than someone made-up.
